My self heading ( mounding) philodendrons tend to feel wobbly in their pots without stakes or moss poles. Fortunately I saw you mount ROF on moss pole and did the same for my own struggling with root rot, which saved his life! 1.5 yrs on now, all roots grew into the moss pole, the pot is just a sturdy base to hold and catch water now. Thanks again Jan, your growing concepts are 🔥😻

Merci pour cette nouvelle vidéo !😊 Je me demande si ce ring of fire, qui pousse naturellement plus en touffe qu'en hauteur, grandira beaucoup plus avec cette extension. Faudrait voir ce qu'il est capable de faire en milieu naturel. De toutes façons, il est déjà très beau tel qu'il est, mais vrai que son premier tuteur est déjà "surpeuplé" 😉. J'espère que tu nous tiendras au courant de l'évolution de cette plante (et je n'en doute pas !). À plus ! 🍀

I put mine on a mosspole after I saw you did it, and I don't regret that 😃 but when the roots start peaking out of the top of the mosspole, what do I do with them?? The plant is far from reaching the top of the pole, so I really don't want to extend it.. 🤔 Any tips? And, will it increase the varigation with more light? Thank you 🥰

I do nothing with the roots on top :) the tip will dry out eventually :) from my experience light can definitely encourage more variegation but also seems to be random

Hi, first, thank you for all the great informative videos. I wanted to ask a moss pole question. For small plants, should I give them small or standard size Moss Poles? I am wondering if I give them a small pole, at some point I'll have to switch to a larger pole and will look bad. On the other hand. it would look funny (and perhaps a waste of moss) if I give them a large pole. Thanks in advance for your help 🙂

Is this the correct term? Excurrant? plants with an excurrent growth habit have single, undivided trunks and lateral branches that typically produce an overall cone or pyramid-shaped form. This plant form and growth habit is characteristic of many gymnosperms such as Thuja plicata (western red cedar) and Pseudotsuga menziesii (Douglas fir) 🔥

Hello Jan, Quick question about watering after you transfered your gorgeous Ring of Fire: Did you water directly after or did you let the sphagnum moss dry out to eliminate the spores to reduce the risk of mold ? I'm having loads of issues with those D shape poles, which are not as aerated as the homemade ones and have some mold issues. Do you plan on making a video about mold issues with spagnum moss and ways to prevent them ? That would be very helpful for a lot of people... But, in the other hand... If you havn't encountered that issue, you can't really speak from experience, which is totally understandable. It is an issue that is basically environmental, based on each person's conditions, I guess. Finding sdolutions online on this issue is quite tough so if you have tips, that'd be wonderful !!!

@sydneyplantguy 21 күн бұрын

It’s something I very rarely experience so don’t think I’m in the best position to talk much about it. I water straight away :)

My Ring of fire is small and has been small for a year and a half. It's just a small pretty lump that gets some variegation, but doesn't seem to grow. My jungle boogie, on the other hand, is growing out of control! Same conditions. I have no idea why the variegated one won't grow. 😭

@sydneyplantguy 24 күн бұрын

The variegation cannot contribute to photosynthesis so it will require more light & patience :)
